šĀ 5 Tweet Tuesday šĀ
If youāre new around here, every week I share the 5 best tweets I saw in the past 7 days.
I scroll, so you donāt have to.
Letās get to it:

This reminds me of a great quote I heard about discipline:
āPeople think discipline is about saying no to stuff you want, but it's actually just remembering what you really want.ā
(eg. you want to lose weight but you also really want a cookie. Discipline is remembering you want to lose weight more than you want the cookie)

This is great. Really great. At my company....the default "letās follow up" time is same day (1-3 hrs later)
This works because it implies 3 key assumptions:
IMPACT - if you're working on the highest priority thing, then you should have no problem canceling/moving other meetings
FOCUS - you can make a ton of progressĀ in 2-3 hours of focused work
CHUNKING - you can take any big task and break it down into small chunks.
The worst companies I've worked at had a default ālet's follow upā time between next week and never.

Hiring a VA is a cheat code to life.
And if youāre a CEO, investor, or executive reading this - you should've hired one yesterday.
Yes, you can definitely find one yourself but Support ShepherdĀ ā a company I used so much I ended up investing in ā makes it 10x easier.
Thank me later.

Getting older is all about knowing a guy. A tax guy, a car guy, a plumbing guy, I donāt measure wealth in terms of money, but by how many guys you know
